Quotes:
03:45 “That’s a really important place for anyone in enrollment to begin - understanding what the organization’s goals and objectives are.”
17:02 “Our job is not to sell something. Our job is to inform parents about the right characteristics - to give them an opportunity to make a decision that’s going to be the best decision for them.”
24:20 “We’re getting to a place where there might be systems that are trying to ‘do it all,’ and we might get into the danger zone of trying to over-automate contact. Sometimes a personal touch is more effective than 15 auto-generated emails.”
29:50 “Data integrity, security, and the safety of information is something to be very aware of when you’re choosing a system. People’s privacy is very important to them.”
31:07 “We are the wild, wild west right now in the US. The European countries have much stricter data privacy and information rules than we do, but we will get tighter.”
33:02 “Be true to who you are and what you offer.”
